Re: Rolling Out


As my Daddy to said to me when I shipped out:

"Boy, you watch yourself overseas now, y'heah?"

Get it done and come home. And thanks for serving. If people weren't willing to do what you're doing, we would be in one hell of bad place by now.
Blue star in the window!

Safe Home!!!!!!
